The author assumes that the question can be answered by applying principles of anatomy, physics and evolutionary biology. First reason he suggests is that cats are small and they have a favourable mass-surface area ratio. Next, he suggests that cats have soft tissues that absorb the shock and they land on all four limbs, dividing the shock. This is because of their body shape and its centre of gravity. He says that felines have this kind of body structure (that canines lack) because years of falling from trees etc. has evolved their body in this way.

The buffers are the chemical solution which neutralizes the acidic effect and the human body also produces the biological buffers which help maintain the pH.

The pancreatic juice secreted by the pancreas gets drained into the duodenum of the small intestine and neutralizes the effect of the acidic content in the stomach bolus.  The pancreatic juice contains the sodium bicarbonate which neutralises the effect of the HCl.

Thus, Pancreatic juice, NaHCO₃ is the correct answer.
